Ad Astra (2019)
pretty but bad
Ad Astra: Thumbs.......DOWN.
Unless you are wanting to watch an artistic movie where the director cares more about visually stunning shots (which there were numerous) save you money and stay home.
Between the horrible misused and underused Tommy Lee Jones, to the horde of probably (I'm not a physicist) scientific inaccuracies, and an anticlimactic ending that leaves you saying, "that's it" when the credits start it was a very underwhelming and disappointing movie.
The only plus was that Brad Pitt did do an excellent job portraying an emotional and tortured character. Yet I was hoping for more time and more logical interactions with Tommy Lee Jones.
I would have gotten more entertainment staying home watching a repeat of yesterday's news.
Annabelle Comes Home (2019)
Switcharo
The commercials tease you with a returning cast and returning evil. What do we get instead a cookie cutter horror movie that doesn't have the charm of not only the other movies in the series, but is the first blemish in Wan's recent career.
The Warren couple makes a guest appearance which served nothing more than connecting this movie into the same universe as the others then BOOM they are gone.
Leaving us with a standard, unoriginal, and boring movie that could have been put out by any studio or director.
Not up to par with the actor's or director's other work. I've loved all his other movies and nearly walked out on this one since everything came as you would expect it to even the commonly, overused, jump scares.
Supergirl: Crisis on Earth-X, Part 1 (2017)
Nazis serve their purpose.
Caught your attention didn't it. Hear me out though. A lot of people are complaining an asking why Nazis what is this 1985? For now Nazis serve a purpose in super hero shows. They are a human, Earth based enemy, where viewers don't get upset if the good guys hurt, maim, or even kill the human. The studio doesn't have to come up with a machine or a random non-humanoid alien, they can have disposable humans with a Earth based plot. Even the Avengers use them to be beaten to a more extreme manner. Super Heroes can kill humans, if the humans are Nazis.
